Copy Cat

-



Today Finn got a wonderful surprise, Victoria and JT came to pick Finn up from the house and take him on a car ride. He got to sit in JT's big car seat and everything. When we first put him in the car he acted a little nervous, he kept looking at me as if to say, "I'm not going to cry but I would prefer for you to stay within my line of sight."




After a few minutes we all started raising our hands, including JT. It was at this point that Finn decided that this arrangement wasn't so bad after all.






When Finn got home this afternoon he was so happy to see me. He was also in a great mood which is surprising given the fact that he only took a one hour nap.

At some point while feeding Finn his green beans and potatoes, I must have put my hands on my head in complete and utter frustration (seriously a very messy combination). The next thing I know Finn is putting both hands on his head and laughing. Once he gets his hands on his head he takes his right hand and taps his fingers. After putting his hands on his head, he immediately put him in the air and then started clapping. Is it possible that we have a future male cheerleader on our hands?????

Next I decided to see what else Finn could copy. I thought that I would challenge him a bit by doing the moose head (opening your hands, putting your thumbs on your temples and spreading your fingers out to look like antlers).
Not perfect, but not bad.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
